The flight started with taxiing the aircraft, an Airbus A321, from the parking to the runway at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (EHAM). This taxiing process took 6 minutes and covered a distance of approximately 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 18L at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, utilizing 1,431 meters of the runway, which accounted for 51% of its length. The takeoff speed was 162 knots.
The aircraft encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 22°C, a wind speed of 23 knots coming from a direction of 230°, resulting in a crosswind of 17 knots and a headwind of 16 knots. After takeoff, the enroute climb began approximately 1 mile east of Aalsmeerderbrug in the province of Noord-Holland, The Netherlands. The aircraft climbed from an initial altitude of 1,020 feet above sea level to a maximum of 34,875 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,855 feet over the course of 20 minutes, covering a distance of 111 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started approximately 1 mile south of Louveigne in Wallonia, Belgium, and lasted for 16 minutes during which the aircraft covered 104 nautical miles. Following this cruise phase, the enroute descent began overhead Petit-Rederching in Grand Est, France. The aircraft descended from 35,097 feet above sea level to 19,363 feet above sea level, a decrease of 15,734 feet over the course of 11 minutes, covering a distance of 68 nautical miles.
Another enroute level cruise phase started approximately overhead Sankt Georgen im Schwarzwald in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany, and lasted for only 3 minutes, covering a short distance of 20 nautical miles. The enroute descent then began overhead Blumberg, also in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany. The aircraft descended from 19,252 feet above sea level to 2,824 feet above sea level, a decrease of 16,427 feet over the course of 12 minutes, covering a distance of approximately 23 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Zürich Airport (LSZH), it began its final approach to runway 28 from the east, maintaining a heading of 276.0° and descending to an altitude of 1,413 feet above sea level, approximately 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft touched down on runway 28, which was 2,484 meters long. The threshold speed was good at 139 knots, but the touchdown speed was a bit fast at 136 knots, and the touchdown rate was hard at -460 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 1,864 meters, accounting for 75% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was excellent. After landing, taxiing to the parking area took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 335 nautical miles, taking 78 minutes, and the aircraft used a total of 3,606 kilograms of fuel.

The Airbus A321 aircraft successfully completed a landing on runway 28 at Zürich Airport (LSZH), showcasing exceptional performance in several areas. The approach initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading at 276.0° and maintaining an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,413 feet above ground level (agl). The pilots managed to maintain good control throughout the final approach.
Notably, the aircraft achieved a good terminal threshold height, further indicating precise control and skillful navigation. The touchdown speed was measured at 139 knots, which is well within the recommended range for safe landing. However, the touchdown speed on the ground was slightly faster at 136 knots, suggesting minor adjustments in control to prevent over-speed conditions.
Despite this minor issue, the aircraft still managed to maintain a stable touchdown rate of -460 feet per minute. It's essential to note that a steeper descent rate can be considered hard, potentially posing stress on the landing gear and the aircraft's overall structure.
Under favorable local weather conditions, with a relatively calm temperature of 15 °C and wind speeds not exceeding 7 knots, the pilots successfully navigated the Airbus A321 towards the runway. Although a headwind of 2 knots was present, it was relatively minimal and did not impact the aircraft's performance significantly.
The actual landing distance achieved was 1,864 meters, accounting for 75% of the runway, which is a considerable reduction given the aircraft's maximum runway length of approximately 2,484 meters. The perfect runway touchdown alignment further highlights the pilots' accuracy and skill in landing the aircraft.
Finally, the aircraft's runway rollout alignment was described as very good, reflecting the pilots' attention to detail and ability to maintain control even during the critical phase of landing. Overall, the Airbus A321 landing on runway 28 at Zürich Airport was successful and demonstrated a high level of competence.
